The contract, valued at £100,000 GBP, falls under the services category within the mobile telephones and telecommunications network industry. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the tender period closing on 8th September 2023. The contract period is scheduled to start on 31st October 2023 and last until 31st October 2026. This opportunity for business growth presents potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the telecommunications sector who can provide mobile services. Businesses capable of offering Vodafone branded mobile services within the UK market are well-suited to compete for this contract. The award of £70,500 GBP to Class Networks Limited indicates a chance for similar businesses to secure contracts with Horton Housing Association and expand their market presence in the industry. ## Notice Please see attached documentation for application instructions and terms. This contract is for the 3 year replacement of Horton Housings Vodafone mobile services contract. Additional information: The billing information supplied with the ITT contains the current connection type per sim. We have about 16 that are voice only. Currently there is only 1 connection that is data only, but we are likely to add approx. 10 more of these by the time we start the new contract (these would be in addition to the 400 connections requested in the ITT). There is no roaming outside of the UK needed in general. We accept that any roaming would be an add-on package, but would like to understand the cost of such a package should we need to temporarily apply it to any of the connections. This would generally only be in rare circumstances such as a senior manager wishing to have use of their phone (for work purposes) whilst away on holiday. They may holiday within the EU or further afield. Responses can be submitted in a suppliers own format, though please complete the information requested in the appendix using the format used in the ITT. Our current SIM cards are Vodafone branded. We are billed by Vodafone directly but also have a 3rd party that manages the relationship with Vodafone on our behalf (including support services etc.). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a37207d-2a08-454d-9572-c7e8191df851 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Nov 2023 | | Submission deadline | 8 Sep 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 13 Nov 2023 | | Contract period | 13 Nov 2023 - 14 Nov 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £70,500 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HORTON HOUSING ASSOCIATION | | Locality | BRADFORD | | Post town | Bradford | | Postcode | BD5 0BS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE41 Bradford | | Local authority | Bradford | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Bradford West | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | CLASS NETWORKS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment ### Codes - 32250000 - Mobile telephones - 32412100 - Telecommunications network ## Release History - 15 Nov 2023 at 12:14 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a37207d-2a08-454d-9572-c7e8191df851 - 23 Aug 2023 at 14:42 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ed102072-da26-4179-b126-a8d8b1f1bcb7 - 18 Aug 2023 at 08:41 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ed102072-da26-4179-b126-a8d8b1f1bcb7 - 15 Aug 2023 at 09:53 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ed102072-da26-4179-b126-a8d8b1f1bcb7 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a37207d-2a08-454d-9572-c7e8191df851 15th November 2023 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ed102072-da26-4179-b126-a8d8b1f1bcb7 23rd August 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5a79fd83-11e3-4a28-88ec-a09b7e9f5bea Invitation to Tender - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/903d3dc5-4a12-41b8-8633-c44b55f3734d Illustrative billing information for current contracted services - redacted ## Notice URLs - https://hortonhousing.co.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
